Tasting note
Red fruits and cherries stand out on the nose, with a subtle balsamic, almost minty touch, aromatic herbs like thyme and rosemary, and primary fruit aromas. On the palate, it surprises with its silky structure, smooth tannins, and balanced acidity. A long-lasting wine with mature red fruits, inviting an immediate second sip.
In the press
This Cencibel (Tempranillo) is category defining, displaying intense blueberry fruit and sweet, succulent tannins… everything good viticulture is capable of delivering in La Mancha. The fruit comes from vines planted near Tomelloso in 1956 at 720 metres and is aged for ten months in amphora. The wine is perfectly ripe with a touch of creaminess and lively acidity. Approachable, morish and very classy. 2024 - 2027
Viticulture
Organic. Limestone shallow, rocky soil, pebbles. Low bushes planted in 1956, no irrigation.
Vinification
Spring yields good flowering, followed by hot, dry Summer. Grapes arrive in September, undergo selection, then ferment in stainless steel. After fermentation, aged 10 months in ancestral 4,500L clay jars. Bottled and rested for 36 months. Natural clarification. Possible sediment over time, no impact on wine quality
Food Match
This is a silky red wine with a remarkable acidity that matches perfectly well both with white and red meats or fatty fishes such as tuna and cod. It is also good with pasta and meat sauce dishes.
